Step by Step DIY(Do It Yourself) Guide
1
Prepare your nails for painting.
- File and shape your nails to your desired length.
- Buff the surface of your nails to create a smooth base.
- Apply a base coat to protect your nails.
2
Apply the base color.
- Apply one to two coats of vibrant blue nail polish, allowing each coat to dry completely.
- Make sure the base is even and well-distributed.
3
Create the star designs.
- Using the gold nail polish and a dotting tool or nail stencil, form the star shapes on your nails.
- Fill in the star shapes evenly and allow them to dry.
4
Add embellishments.
- Use the silver glitter polish at the tips of some nails for a gradient effect.
- Employ a dotting tool to add small dots around the stars for additional visual interest.
- For nails with a grid pattern, use a striping brush and gold polish to draw lines.
5
Finish with a top coat.
- Once all designs are dry, apply a top coat to seal and protect your nail art.
- Ensure the top coat is evenly applied to enhance the shine.
6
Clean up any excess polish.
- Dip a cotton swab in nail polish remover and carefully clean around the edges of your nails.
- Ensure no polish is smudged onto your skin.
Pro Tips
Always allow each layer of polish to dry completely before applying the next.
If freehand painting is challenging, consider using stencils for the stars and grid patterns.
Practice on a piece of paper if you're new to nail art before applying directly onto your nails.
Using a fast-drying top coat can help speed up the overall process and reduce smudging.
